More News:
We have a couple of new swaps forming and more "scrambles" going on at the Quilt Shoppe Forum. One of the block swaps is a "Dutch Doll" swap that is in the final stages now. I'll post a picture as soon as all of my blocks have been received. Karen's new swaps include: "Pretty in Pink" and "Pond Life". And a Fat 8th fabric swap. The "Double 4 Patch Scramble" was won by Jessie Law, Florida. Winners of the "Square Dance" scrambles will be drawn tomorrow night. A new scramble is up, called "Claudia's Nickel Nines", along with the current scramble, "Twinklers". Some members are doing an online mystery quilt (together). We call it our "group therapy" mystery quilt. Plus, "Irish Karen" posts her favorite links every month to all those quilting freebie sites on the net. Go here to join in on the fun:
